Over the Moon is a 2020 computer-animated
musical adventure comedy-drama film directed by Glen Keane and co-directed by John Kahrs, from a screenplay by Audrey Wells. The film is produced by Pearl Studio and Netflix Animation, and animated by Sony Pictures Imageworks. It stars the voices of Cathy Ang, Phillipa Soo, Ken Jeong, John Cho, Ruthie Ann Miles, Margaret Cho and Sandra Oh. It is the first international film to be directed by Keane, who serves as an animator for Walt Disney Animation Studios; and the second film produced by Pearl Studio, after DreamWorks' 2019 animated film Abominable.

The film was first shown at the Montclair Film Festival on October 17, 2020, followed by its Netflix and select theaters release on October 23. The film received positive reviews with critics praising the animation, voice acting, musical numbers, and themes, though it received criticism for its story.

Gorgeous animation and strong vocal work across the board. The story is a bit pedestrian but very moving. I didn't find the musical numbers anything to write home about though. As a Disney knockoff it's not bad. B

It starts off really well specially before Fei Fei reaches the moon. Once we reach the moon it becomes animation display of colorful characters one after another where story takes backseat and music numbers are kept to make things coherent. The animation is wonderful and at times breath taking and the human character designs are brilliant but I was most disappointed with the songs in here, which are a bigger part of the movie.
